Default What If?

Similar to Guru, where we incorporate all of the C1 to C6 General Discussion only
forums into one Corvette General Chat. Now I know some will say that's what OT is for, but it seems a lot of us don't go there for whatever reason. It might liven the place up, and give us guys here a chance to see what the "other" gens are doing, correct them and bash on them when required.
Just a thought.

As a certified C5 snob I would prefer to have our own forum so we can talk about floor mats, car wax and tires without being persecuted by the C4 riff raff

Won't work, as soon as one of our guys started talking about doing a repair, turning a wrench, or anything technical about our cars the C5 guys would be lost and just start asking a bunch of dumb questions..The C6 guys would ask ( whats a wrench???)....WW

True, but tech questions would still remain in Tech - Gen specific. I'm talking open discussions only

yeah, best not to have the C5 guys in here. I just left their gen section shaking my head.

guys yapping about all kinds of mods and when you ask if they track their car, they say no but I do spirited driving.

WTF does that mean?

And the never ending my bose sucks, it won't play bass and thump.

I'm in. The mass confusion alone would be worth the price of admission.

Can we photoshop ugly wings on the C1/2 guys cars?
